firefox: Update to 88.0

Changelog:
New

  * PDF forms now support JavaScript embedded in PDF files. Some PDF forms use
    JavaScript for validation and other interactive features.

  * Print updates: Margin units are now localized.

  * Smooth pinch-zooming using a touchpad is now supported on Linux

  * To protect against cross-site privacy leaks, Firefox now isolates
    window.name data to the website that created it. Learn more

Fixed

  * Screen readers no longer incorrectly read content that websites have
    visually hidden, as in the case of articles in the Google Help panel.

  * Various security fixes.

Changed

  * Firefox will not prompt for access to your microphone or camera if you've
    already granted access to the same device on the same site in the same tab
    within the past 50 seconds. This new grace period reduces the number of
    times you're prompted to grant device access.

  * The "Take a Screenshot" feature was removed from the Page Actions menu in
    the url bar. To take a screenshot, right-click to open the context menu.
    You can also add a screenshots shortcut directly to your toolbar via the
    Customize menu. Open the Firefox menu and select Customize...

  * FTP support has been disabled, and its full removal is planned for an
    upcoming release. Addressing this security risk reduces the likelihood of
    an attack while also removing support for a non-encrypted protocol.
